Milan legend Alessandro Costacurta: “De Rossi must prove his worth.”

Legendary Milan defender Alessandro Costacurta weighed in on the expectations for Daniele De Rossi’s first season in charge of Roma.

In an interview with Tuttosport, Costacurta spoke of De Rossi and Roma’s ambitions for the season.

“Now comes the difficult part,” said Costacurta. “Last year we all fell in love with Daniele, now he has to prove his worth as a coach.”

“Roma are building a good team for him, I advise him to focus on just one competition rather than try and compete on several fronts at the same time,” he added.
